<p>[QUOTE=&quot;+VGO.DVCKS, post: 7674986, member: 110504&quot;]Solid example, [USER=74712]@FitzNigel[/USER].&nbsp; Wish I knew which chronicle it was (not on the shelves), but one of the ones about the First Crusade --Fulcher of Chartres, maybe?-- goes into some real detail about what was in circulation among the crusaders as of then.</p><p>...Which is the best I&#039;m likely to do, where primary documentation is concerned.&nbsp; Granted, this issue postdates the initial phases, but your memory* is obviously serving you very well.&nbsp; For people tuning in late, an earlier Raymond of Toulouse was a participant in the First Crusade, netting (with his descendants) the Frankish Levantine County of Tripoli for their pains.</p><p>*In <i>my </i>case --as in, <i>not </i>yours!-- I like to refer to memory I have of this sort of thing, in the absence of easy access to books, as &#039;muscle memory.&#039;&nbsp; Thank you, with commensurate connotations.&nbsp; Right, you can sit that out!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
